As shown in FIG. 5, the illegal boarding information registration table 52a has a memory space of 10 address units.
Unauthorized boarding information for the case is registered.

As shown in FIG. 6, in the illegal boarding information registration table 52a, the recording content format for each case includes a collection date and time, a code corresponding to the determination NG factor, a code corresponding to the type of person, and a ticket. The code corresponding to the type is recorded.

As the cause of the judgment NG, the code is "01".
, Expired, code "02", fare shortage, code "03", out of section, code "0"
In the case of "4", it is defined that there is no bill passing.

The type of person is defined as an adult when the code is "01" and as a child when the code is "02".

The type of ticket is defined as a normal ticket when the code is "01", a commuter pass when the code is "02", and an admission ticket when the code is "03".

For example, as the collection date and time, "1998.
06.25 08:00 ”, June 25, 1998
At 8:00 on the day, it means that the vehicle passed illegally. If the code as the determination NG factor is “01”, it means that an expired ticket has been inserted. If the code as the type of person is “02”, it has passed. Means that the child is a child, and if the code as the ticket type is "01", it means that the inserted ticket is an ordinary ticket.

In the illegal riding information registration table 52a,
When information on more than 1,000 (maximum number of registered) unauthorized rides is registered (occurred), it is sequentially overwritten from the oldest illegal ride information (head information).

In registering the information on the illegal boarding in the illegal boarding information registration table 52a, it is not possible to register the information beyond the area (1000 maximum number of registrations) allocated for this registration.

Therefore, referring to the flowchart of FIG. 7, a method of registering illegal boarding information when the number of illegal boarding information exceeding the area occurs and a method of calculating an address of the illegal boarding information registration table 52a to be registered at that time will be described. It will be explained while doing.

That is, when an illegal ride occurs and the illegal state information as the state information occurs, the CPU 50 determines the currently registered number M and the maximum registered number N (1000) registered in the registered number registration area 52b. Are compared (ST1).

As a result of this comparison, the CPU 50 determines that the currently registered number M is smaller than the maximum registered number N (M <N).
(ST2) It is determined that the currently registered number N × 10 addresses is the storage location of the unauthorized boarding information registration table 52a (ST2).
3), and store the unauthorized status information of one case that has occurred this time in this storage location (ST4).

Next, the CPU 50 adds 1 to the currently registered number (M) of the registered number registration area 52b (ST5).

If the result of the comparison in step 2 indicates that the currently registered number M is larger than the maximum registered number N (M ≧ N),
The CPU 50 adds 1 to the currently registered number (M) of the registered number registration area 52b (ST6). At this time, the value exceeds the maximum number of registrations, and it is possible to determine whether or not the illegal state information is overwritten by this value.

Next, the CPU 50 divides the currently registered number (M) by 1000, determines the remainder number at that time × 10 as the storage location of the unauthorized ride information registration table 52a (ST7), The unauthorized status information for one occurrence is stored (ST8). As a result, the data is overwritten from the head of the storage area of the unauthorized boarding information registration table 52a.

As described above, the illegal boarding information registration table 5
The storage address of 2a is the number of currently registered items (M) × 1
0 or the remainder value of (M ÷ 1000) × 10. However, if the memory capacity is not sufficient or if there is, the number of records can be changed accordingly. It should be noted that even if the number of cases of unauthorized status information collection is reduced due to overwriting, the number of cases that actually occurred can be known.

As shown in FIG. 8, the time table 52c records the type of recording time zone, the number n of time zone registrations, and time zone 1... Time zone n as registered time zone data. Has become.

The type of the recording time zone is "00".
In the case of fraud, a record is not taken even if a fraud occurs. In the case of "01", a record is always taken while the automatic ticket gate 70 is operating,
In the case of “02”, recording is performed only in the time zone indicated by the time zone data.

One time zone data format includes a start time and an end time, and recording is performed only for the time specified by the time from the start to the end.

The CPU 50 determines whether or not to register the illegal state information in the illegal boarding information registration table 52a when an illegal boarding occurs.
Depends on the registered contents of c.

That is, when the type of the recording time zone is "00", the CPU 50 does not take a record even if an illegal operation occurs, and when the type is "01", the CPU 50 always makes a record while the automatic ticket gate 70 is operating. In the case of "02", recording is performed only in the time zone indicated by the time zone data.

By making such designation, it is possible to prevent the recording from exceeding the recording area, and it is also possible to record only in a necessary time zone.

Next, the ticket inspection process in the above configuration will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

First, the CPU 50 assumes a standby state in which a ticket such as a ticket is to be inserted (no ticket is inserted, and no person is in the automatic ticket gate 70) (ST11).

In this standby state, the CPU 50 does not judge the insertion of a ticket (ST12), and when it judges that a person has passed (ST13), checks the registered contents of the time table 52c (ST14) and determines the type of recording time zone. Is "00", it is determined that no record is taken, and the process returns to step 1 to return "0".
In the case of "1", it is determined that a record is taken, and the process proceeds to step 16,
In the case of "02", the time zone indicated by the time zone data and the CP
The current time measured by U50 is checked (ST1).
5) If the current time is within the time zone, it is determined that a record is to be taken and the process proceeds to step 16, and if the current time is outside the time zone,
It is determined that no record is taken, and the process returns to step 1.

As described above, when it is determined that a record is to be taken, the CPU 50 determines the date and time of collection, the code corresponding to the determination NG factor (passing without bill entry), the code corresponding to the type of person,
The code corresponding to the type of ticket is recorded in the illegal boarding information registration table 52a (ST16). The type of person mentioned above is
In accordance with the detection result of the human detectors 7,..., It is recognized whether they are adults or children, and the values corresponding to each of them (adults: 01, children 02)
Record As for the type of ticket, 00 (indicating no insertion) is recorded because no ticket has been inserted because no ticket has been entered. The date and time are read from a clock (not shown) and recorded.

In the case of the simple type automatic ticket gate 70, since the door is not loaded and illegality cannot be prevented, the status display section 8 as an abnormal lamp is turned on, the alarm is sounded, and the shutter of the slot 2 is closed. Is not performed.

If it is determined in step 13 that a person has not passed, the process returns to step 1.

When it is determined in step 12 that a ticket has been inserted, the CPU 50 determines the validity of the inserted ticket (ST17), and determines whether or not the determination is OK (valid) (ST17). ST18) When the result of the determination is OK, it is determined whether or not a person with the OK determination has passed (ST19), and the result of this determination is waited for the person with the OK determination to pass. Return to In this case, the improper riding is not performed, so the improper state information is not recorded.

At step 18, when the determination is NG (invalid), the CPU 50 sets the status display unit 8 as an abnormal lamp.
Lights up, sounds an alarm, discharges the ticket from the outlet 3,
The shutter (not shown) of the input port 2 is closed (ST2).
0).

Next, the CPU 50 determines whether a person has passed or not (ST21).
It is determined whether or not the ticket has been returned to the slot 2 (ST
22) If not returning to the inlet 2 side, step 21
Return to

If it is determined in step 22 that the user has picked up the ticket at the outlet 3 and returned to the slot 2, the CPU 50
Turns off the status display section 8 as an abnormal lamp, opens the shutter of the slot 2, and returns to step 1 (ST23).

That is, if the result of the determination in step 12 is NG
In the case of, the shutter of the slot 2 is closed so that the next passenger does not insert the ticket, and the abnormal lamp is turned on, the alarm is sounded and the passenger who has inserted the judgment NG ticket is required to purchase or pay the ticket correctly. (In the guidance display unit 4). Therefore, when the ticket is returned to the slot 2 after taking the ticket discharged to the exit 3 of the automatic ticket gate 70 as NG, the abnormal lamp is turned off because the correct ticket will be reinserted. , Stop the alarm and put it on standby.

If it is determined in step 21 that a person has passed, the CPU 50 sets the time table 52c.
Is checked (ST24), and the type of recording time zone is
In the case of "00", it is determined that no record is taken, and step 27
In the case of "01", it is determined that a record is taken, and the process proceeds to step 26. In the case of "02", the time zone indicated by the time zone data and the current time measured by a clock (not shown) are determined. Check (ST25), if the current time is within the time zone,
If it is determined that a record is to be taken, the process proceeds to step 26. If the current time is outside the time zone, it is determined that no record is taken, and step 27 is taken.
Proceed to.

As described above, when it is determined that a record is to be taken, the CPU 50 determines the collection date and time, a code corresponding to the determination NG factor (fare shortage, expired, out of section), a code corresponding to the type of person, The code corresponding to the type is recorded in the illegal boarding information registration table 52a (ST26).

After the recording in step 26 or when it is determined in step 24 or 25 that recording is not to be performed, the CPU 50 turns off the status display section 8 as an abnormal lamp and opens the shutter of the slot 2 (ST27). It is determined whether or not the ticket remains in the exit 2 (ST28). If the ticket remains in the exit 2, the ticket remaining in the exit 2 is collected in the automatic ticket gate 70 (ST29). If no ticket remains in the outlet 2, the process returns to step 1.

That is, if the passenger who has inserted the ticket at the time of step 26 has already passed through the automatic ticket gate 70 and the inserted ticket remains in the exit 3, the next passenger will insert the ticket. Can not. Therefore, the remaining ticket is taken into the automatic ticket gate 70. Further, the shutter of the slot 2 is opened to accept the ticket of the next customer (standby state).

If the judgment is NG but the pass has been made with the inserted ticket, the status display section 8 as an abnormal lamp is turned off, the alarm is stopped, the shutter of the insertion slot 2 is opened, and the next It is in a standby state to accept a customer's ticket.

Further, the CPU 50 receives the instruction from the display device 72, and registers the illegal boarding information registration table 52a.
The illegal ride information recorded in the is transmitted. As a result, the display device 72 collects illegal boarding information from the plurality of automatic ticket gates 70 for each ticket gate, and displays
It is possible to analyze and display the status of illegal riding by time zone 0, the status of illegal riding by ticket gate, and the status of illegal riding by ticket zone.

For example, by taking statistics, it is possible to grasp the tendency, such as when a large number of illegal rides occur in one month, and to allocate staff members based on this tendency to reduce the number of illegal rides. Becomes

As described above, in the simple type automatic ticket gate with no door loaded, regardless of whether an invalid ticket is inserted or not, if the ticket is not correctly passed through the automatic ticket gate, The unauthorized riding information registration table at that time records the number of unauthorized riding at that time for the number of occurrences of unauthorized activity.

Further, the information on the illegal riding situation to be recorded is used for examining fraud monitoring and control after collection.
In order to make it easier to examine, the date and time of the illegal ride, the type of fraud (passing without a bill, passing by invalid ticket),
It records the type of ticket when the child is inserted and when the ticket is inserted.

Further, when the vehicle passes through the automatic ticket gate without inserting a ticket, the status of the illegal boarding is recorded, but the automatic ticket gate is not abnormal.

Further, when recording illegal information in the illegal boarding information registration table, if the memory capacity to be recorded is insufficient, the information is recorded from the beginning of the table to be recorded.

Further, it is possible to variably set the time for recording the status of illegal riding.

That is, information on what kind of illegal boarding is being carried out is collected for each simple type automatic ticket gate with no door loaded, and the collected information is analyzed and displayed. is there.

Thus, it is possible to collect information on what kind of illegal riding is being performed, and to grasp the tendency of illegal riding based on the collected information. By arranging the doors, it is possible to control the unauthorized passage of passengers to a simple automatic ticket gate device with no door loaded, and to obtain an effect of suppressing illegal riding.

Further, even if a large amount of investment is not required as in the case of an expensive automatic ticket gate, it is possible to monitor and control illegal riding.

Further, the time of occurrence of fraud, the type of adult / child, ticket type, and what kind of fraudulent boarding (whether a ticket has not been inserted or passed through an automatic ticket gate with an invalid ticket inserted) can be known from the recorded illegal state information. By collecting and analyzing this information, it is possible to examine ways to monitor and control fraud.

Further, by analyzing the tendency of the fraud with the fraud status information, it is possible to prevent the fraud monitoring and crackdown from becoming a dark cloud.

Further, the tendency of illegal riding can be grasped from the collected illegal state information.

Further, by temporarily arranging station staff members based on the tendency of fraud analyzed from the collected fraudulent state information, an effect of suppressing illegal riding can be obtained.

In addition to the simple type of automatic ticket gates described above, in addition to the absence of a door, a printing unit, a punch unit, a human detector and a pole unit, etc. are excluded, and a magnetic unit for both sides is replaced with a magnetic unit for one side. By doing so, the number of magnetic heads may be reduced, or the overall length may be shortened and made compact. Moreover, you may make it portable type.

[0090]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, it is possible to collect information on what kind of illegal riding is performed, and to grasp the tendency of illegal riding based on the collected information. By temporarily arranging station staff from the grasped fraudulent tendency, it is possible to provide an automatic ticket gate device and an automatic ticket gate system that can obtain the effect of suppressing illegal riding.
